Is the thermistor always part of the device? (i.e. in the chip) in which
case this might be fine.  If it's external then it needs to be described
by a separate device which acts as a consumer of the IIO channel and
in turn provides the scaled output to thermal.

The thermistor should really be separately described.   This is already
done in drivers/hwmon/ntc_thermistor 

Are any of these scalings characteristics of the chip supported by
this driver, or are they the result of external hardware?

If we are talking in kernel, that is worked out by the application of
scale.  The IIO in kernel interfaces will do this automatically.

I we are talking in userspace, then the userspace needs to be
extended to support raw and scale reading.

No.  This introduces a mass of undocumented (and uncontrolled) ABI.
If there are reasons to add such a label then it should not be done
in the file name.
